050801 - Following the meeting with the Director, I asked Wayne if he
050802 - would participate in the planning meeting, recommended previously at
050803 - ref SDS 2 line 96, and called for in the meeting with the Director
050804 - today, ref SDS 9 line 324.
050805 -

051201 - Wayne and Walt incorporated the Director's decision to fire
051202 - Tudor and hire a new Engineer, into the CPM schedule for completing
051203 - the Voith contract, per ref SDS 9 line 105.
051204 -
051205 -    Looks like the design problems and the time for manufacturing will
051206 -    now likely not permit DNRC to meet its objective of doing the speed
051207 -    increaser work on the plant during a period of low revenue.
051208 -
051209 -    Seems like replacing the speed increaser will mean 2 months
051210 -    downtime for the plant, and the repair alternative will cost 5
051211 -    months of downtime, according to this initial analysis.
051212 -
051213 -    The revenue curve shows there is now a strong chance that signifi-
051214 -    cant revenue losses will occur initially to the State and for which
051215 -    the State will be forced to seek to recover from Tudor and Voith.
051216 -

051218 - Walt will draft up the CPM alternative scenerios to support
051219 - firing Tudor and hiring a new Engineer on an expedited basis.

051224 -
051225 - We need a good CPM program that can make us some time scaled networks
051226 - so the alternatives can be evaluated as the dynamics of hiring a new
051227 - Engineer and different options for handling the submittal process
051228 - unfold in the coming weeks.

060601 - Wayne and Walt expressed concern that DNRC's outside counsel Peter

060604 - therefore interests of his clients, domestic manufacturers, relative
060605 - to a foreign manufacturers. like Voith and Renk.
